2 rescued from Silver Strand Beach jetty, transported to hospital
A man and a youth who were injured after being swept into the rocks near Silver Strand Beach in Oxnard were rescued and taken to the hospital Nov. 11. Officers with Channel Island Harbor Patrol responded to the water rescue along the jetty around 1:45 p.m., said Sgt. Chris Turek. The officers spotted people close to the top of the rocks asking for help. Harbor patrol officers helped to get the injured off the rocks and into their boats. The man suffered serious injuries to the head after hitting the rocks, and the male youth had minor visible scrapes, Turek said. Both were conscious and expected to survive, he said. The two had been part of a larger group at the beach. It wasn't immediately clear how the pair got into trouble in the water, but conditions were rougher than usual, he said. "We had some pretty good swell out today," Turek said. He estimated the surf at between 3 feet and 5 feet, slightly higher than normal, with 12-second intervals. Reports show the tide was outgoing after a high tide of 5.9 feet at 9:18 a.m. Because it's the off season, Silver Strand Beach and Hollywood Beach across the

High swell exposes rare sea turtle nest on Ventura beach
A rare sea turtle nest on San Buenaventura State Beach was lost after exceptionally high swell and tides exposed the spot near the Ventura pier, officials reported on Nov. 13. Early this month, wildlife agencies confirmed the discovery of an olive ridley sea turtle nest. It marked the first-ever recorded natural nesting in Ventura County and the northernmost nest for the species that normally sticks to areas farther south in Mexico. On Friday, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said the nest was lost. Even if it was left unexposed, sand temperatures recently recorded on the Ventura beach were well below those typically needed by olive ridley turtles, officials said. Just weeks before the nest was first discovered in Ventura, wildlife officials confirmed the first-ever recorded natural nesting for any sea turtle species on the U.S. West Coast. Two olive ridley turtles nested in Orange County in September. The first was spotted digging a nest and laying eggs near Seal Beach, officials said. Days later, a second turtle was discovered nesting near the Huntington Beach Pier, about 8 miles away. Then, a third sea turtle nest was found – this time, in a sandy spot in Ventura.
